    How many people have had to use their knife/cutting tool while diving

    my regular one rusts (immediately I suppose lol) so I've been considering the Blacktip wire cutters typically found at West Marine. For now it is the naval jelly treatment after the dive.

    First camera

    be sure to include lenses in your budget invariably you'll want wide angle vs a kit lens instead of going whole hog with a dSLR setup I went with a gopro. "well that's a HUGE difference, how can you even mention that?!?!?" because I knew that to do it 'right' would be $4k++...

    Backscatter red flip filter in action (GoPro Dive Housing)

    looking forward to it. so far I have started the gopro on the surface and one thing I have not tried is stopping the recording at depth, letting the sensor adjust as much as possible and restarting the recording to see if there is any difference in WB. It is something I've noticed in the LCD...

    Salt water wire cutters

    I took an older pair of wire cutters down the first time this past saturday. It probably rusted during the dive. I took it out of the pouch and dipped it in naval jelly and let it sit for 30min or so. I recommend letting it sit overnight lol.

    Housing buoyancy tweaks

    I've pondered this myself and considered creating a GoPro mount built out of sealed PVC tubing (in order to add lights) and weighted accordingly. Don't know if its strong enough for 100ft (just an example) but at least it would remain neutrally bouyant throughout the depth range.

    Would this be a good knife to have?

    the carabiner can just be snapped onto a line whereas a bolt snap must be done on purpose some bolt snaps are like the one shown, others are double ended.

    Would this be a good knife to have?

    use a bolt snap instead of a carabiner

    Would this be a good knife to have?

    yeah, people will pooh-pooh the carabiner system and I tend to agree. folding knives in general are a nice 2nd option (maybe 3rd).

    Stuart cove worth it?

    I've done Stuart Cove's for snorkeling and the shark experience was part of the trip. Just head out on the rope, stay on the rope, and watch them underneath. They are accustomed to being fed on the bottom so floating on top simply has them cruising around underneath you. Then I saw a blacktip...
